VICE has given politics a brand new flavor! I would've never willingly gone for such a movie but this was beyond clever.
Governor George W. Bush hires Dick Cheney as his Republican running mate in the 2000 presidential elections. Through which, Cheney abuses his new power to remold the world.
Christian Bale is a FREAK! I mean the transformations he undergoes in order to fully embrace any character thrown at him. RESPECT!!!! For god's sake, he was even better than Cheney himself. And Sam Rockwell was quite impressive as well.
The movie was good on so many levels. They managed to attract a new kind of audience with some smart directorial tricks. Highlights of it included: screen freezes, quick brief explanations, sense of humour, and recurrent flashbacks. And narration simply stood out!
Even if you are not into politics, this will surely change your perspective on things. A viciously powerful piece of work.
Grab your tickets and just isolate yourself from any sort of distraction. Highly Recommended
